Oven would not heat up.

Unplugged the range. Opened the oven door and took out the shelves. Took the right screw out, but had trouble getting the left one out do to the age of the range. Unhooked the two wires and took the element out. Put the new one in and hooked up the two wires. Attached the two screws and checked to see that the element laid flat and then tighten screws. Closed the door and plugged the range back in and turned the oven on and it worked perfect.

Oven heating coil snapped and would no longer heat.

It was so easy to change this out. Unplugged the stove and removed a couple of screws on mounting plate and pulled out the old heating element. Plugged in the new one and replaced the screws. Problem solved!

Uneven heating of surface burners. Occasional electrical sound (arching) when burner was turned on. Also the burner would heat up and cool down while burner when turned on.

Replaced all heating surface burners. We noticed signs of arching on the front left (large) burner so we replaced that receptacle with a replacement receptacle kit. Very quick and easy install (5-10 mins) using the short part select video on receptacle kit information page.

Oven Demon Possession

Our repair was extrodinarily easy. As my husband was taking out the old element and the oven was off, the element heated up and actually burned him. He readjusted it and it refused to heat again. We figured at that point that there must be a short, so we never even opened the box with the new element. A short time later we decided to use the top of the stove for soup and a small fire started in the oven. We turned off the braker at that point and ordered a new oven.
